My wife and I just completed the 8-day Huayhuash Circuit with Action Peru Treks, and hands down, it is the best trek I have ever done. If you're debating whether this remote corner of the Peruvian Andes lives up to the hype, it doesn't. It surpasses it in every possible way.From the moment we left Huaraz, the team had everything perfectly organized. The drive to the trailhead, the gear, the campsites seamless. Our guide Marco was knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely passionate about the mountains, sharing stories and keeping the group motivated through the tough sections. The cooks were absolute legends: every day they delivered fresh, delicious meals with variety (even cake and gourmet options on the trail!), accommodating dietary needs without a fuss. The horsemen and support crew worked tirelessly so we could focus purely on the experience.The trek itself is pure wilderness magic. Towering snow-capped peaks like Yerupajá, turquoise glacial lakes that look photoshopped in real life, dramatic high passes (several over 4,800–5,000m), and that raw, untouched feeling of the Cordillera Huayhuash every single day. We crossed Siula Pass with jaw-dropping views of the Tres Lagunas, navigated steep ascents and rewarding descents, and camped in spots that felt like the edge of the world. It's challenging - expect long days, significant elevation gain, cold nights, and the effects of altitude, but for fit trekkers who come properly acclimatized in Huaraz, it's incredibly doable and deeply rewarding.Action Peru Treks made the difference between a good trek and an unforgettable one. They handled logistics flawlessly, prioritized safety, and showed real care for their team and the environment. As a Quechua-owned company, their ethical approach and community focus added a meaningful layer to the adventure.If you're looking for one of the world's most spectacular mountain circuits without the crowds of more famous trails, stop searching. Book the 8-day Huayhuash with Action Peru Treks. You won't regret it - you'll be talking about it for years. I already can't wait to return for another adventure with them!
